“We’re just visiting with our voters today”.

The Times interprets the meeting correctly, I think: It’s not about Trump trying to win Pence’s endorsement (note what Alberta says above about Pence “loathing” Trump) but rather about trying to convince him not to endorse Cruz.

Noel also said Indiana’s vote could play a big part in determining who the next president is, and Heidi Cruz is counting on it.

Inside this restaurant, Kevin Troisi, an accountant from Easton, told Cruz unprompted that he switched from an Independent to register as a Republican for the state’s closed primary, saying he had yet to change until now because past Republican candidates were not true conservatives.

“Ted will be doing a bus tour here next week and we’ve been to Indianapolis, down to Evansville”, Cruz said.

During a Saturday rally in Waterbury, Connecticut, Trump took aim at Cruz, who on Friday used a Trump senior aide’s comments suggesting the candidate was “projecting an image” to argue that Trump was deceiving Republican-primary voters.

Inside, Cruz reiterated the three constants of his well-honed stump – jobs, freedom and security.

“We’re going to pass a simple flat tax so that every one of us can fill out our taxes on a postcard”.

Cruz promptly turned him toward the press cameras: “If I can do this without embarrassing you, I do want to point out that Mr. Trump is leaning towards voting for me”. “There’s a reason the news media is slanted and we need Republicans to know the truth”.

Cruz targeted Donald Trump repeatedly.

James Van Kuilenburg and his mother on Thursday went to a Ted Cruz rally in Maryland.

“Pennsylvania is an energy state”, he said. “Right now, his stance on transgender [people], I agree with”.

“We always have date night Sunday night”.

Several of Cruz’s supporters in Monroeville on Saturday said his staunch constitutionalism was important to them, including 54-year-old Lynn Fessler, Westmoreland County.

She talked about the support growing behind her husband in Indiana. “He doesn’t what to expand what the government does”. “I like that he supports the constitution”.
